Bounce Forward

21 Tools to Live a Life Beyond Limits

New York Times bestselling author and world-renowned motivational speaker Amy Purdy reveals 21 tools to not just bounce back from adversity but to bounce forward into your best life.

When Amy Purdy was nineteen years old, a bout with bacterial meningitis took her legs below the knee, seemingly dashed her hopes of becoming a professional snowboarder, and nearly killed her. 

Fighting her way back from the brink of death, she not only went on to make history as a three-time Paralympic medalist but also to be called a hero by Oprah Winfrey and become a national inspiration as the “girl with the bionic legs” on Dancing with the Stars.

But twenty years after her brush with death, having rebuilt her body and living her best life as a world-famous speaker and athlete, she again found herself knocked off her feet and fighting to walk again. An injury that damaged both her popliteal and femoral arteries threatened to take away everything she had worked so hard to regain.

In this book, she tells her inspiring story of facing life-changing obstacles and the tools she used to not only survive her darkest days but thrive to extraordinary heights.

This isn’t just a story of overcoming, it’s a masterclass of resilience, as she reveals the mindset, tools, and truths to help you rise, thrive, and live fully.

In this book Amy reveals the actionable tools that she used to go:

• From grief to hope
• From helpless to empowered
• From courage to confidence
• From criticizing your body to celebrating it
• From giving up to finding your way
• And much more . . .

Intimately written and packed with practical advice backed by cutting-edge science, Bounce Forward is the ultimate toolbox for building, or rebuilding, your best life.
